Saracen Kili Comp 96

the welding on that frame is classy too shame the modern Saracens are not of that standard.

I have a 2007 Saracen Zen welding on that is superb. Dont tar the Madison takeover saracens of 2006+ with the Halfords awfulness

Back to this beauty - graphics and paint look 100% spot on. This is going to be one nice finished build.

Excellent work with your choice of powder-coat. Looks great with the green decals.

Looking forward to seeing this one built up.

This is delicious Sir. Keep the pics coming. Mmmm.... silver n' green.

Those butterscotch grips will finish it off nicely

They certainly will

Thanks for the nice comments folks.

I have hit a bit of a brick wall in terms of finishing this build as soon as I thought. Basically I didn't have the front mech I thought I had, overlooking the fact it is bottom pull therefore leaving me with 2 options. Source a top pull mech or try to find one of those pully disc things that would allow me to route the cable bellow the mech..

I await the pedals and some green ano bolts. I have also decided to listen to Magas and source some of the older M739 Brake levers. I also want to change the brake pad holders from black to silver.. shorten steerer.. The list goes on

Here are some pics in poor light outside my house today.

Work in progress
